How to Do a GIF Face Swap in Three Steps

Two files in, one GIF out once the swap launches.

  1. 1

    Add the GIF

    Drop in the GIF you want to change, up to 20 MB. The preview plays it and shows its width and height, frame count and file size, so you can see what you are about to swap. No GIF handy? Try a sample GIF in one click.

  2. 2

    Add one face photo

    Add a JPG, PNG or WebP of one person, up to 10 MB, ideally front-facing and clear. A thumbnail confirms it, and you can remove it and pick another. Or try a sample face.

  3. 3

    Press Swap Face

    The button wakes up once both files are in. Today it opens a short waitlist form with your email, and we write once when the swap works. At launch the browser will split the GIF into up to 30 frames, give each frame the new face and put the frames back together into a GIF to download.

Prepare Your Files for a GIF Face Swap

Small choices in the two files decide how the swap will look.

  • Pick a GIF with one clear, visible face; a GIF face swap works from exactly that.
  • Use a front-facing, well-lit photo of one person for the face.
  • Choose a face photo without sunglasses, a hand or a hat across the face.
  • Keep the GIF under 20 MB and the photo under 10 MB, or the upload is refused.
  • Check the frame count in the preview: the swap will cover up to 30 frames.
  • Use only your own face, or a face you have permission to use.

What Happens to Your Files Before the Swap Launches

This page is a preview of the tool, and we say so plainly.

  • Nothing is uploaded yet

    Your GIF and your face photo stay in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server, no GIF face swap is made and nothing is charged.

  • We ask only for your email and one question

    If you press Swap Face, a form asks for your email and what you will make GIFs for. We use the email to tell you once when the swap works.

  • Consent comes first

    Only use your own face, or a face you have permission to use. Do not swap a face into a GIF to impersonate anyone or to make sexual, defamatory or harassing content.

  • The example shows real model output

    The before and after above is a real result: a GIF and a face photo in, the same GIF with the new face out, 10 frames, made with the model we plan to use. Your own result will be AI output, so compare it with the original GIF before you share it. A face swap can miss on a hard frame, and a GIF stores only 256 colors per frame.

Frequently asked questions

Not yet. You can add your GIF and face photo today, and when you press Swap Face we ask for your email so we can tell you once when the swap works. Your files stay in your browser until then.

Add the GIF, add one face photo, then press Swap Face. At launch the browser will split the GIF into up to 30 frames, each frame gets the new face, and the frames come back together as a GIF you can download.

A GIF with one clear, visible face. The upload hint asks for exactly that, and a close, well-lit face gives the swap the most to work with. GIF files only, up to 20 MB.

One clear, front-facing photo of one person, as JPG, PNG or WebP up to 10 MB. Try the sample face first to see how a good source looks.

The page is built for one face from one photo. Multi-face swaps are not part of what we have announced, so use a GIF with a single visible face.

Only your own face, or the face of someone who has given you permission. Do not use a face swap GIF to impersonate anyone or to make sexual, defamatory or harassing content.

There is no sign-up on this page. Pressing Swap Face asks only for an email and one question about what you make GIFs for. We have not announced pricing, and nothing is charged today.

No. The tool takes GIF files only, with no video and no sound. To turn a clip into a GIF first, use one of the GIF tools in the menu.

The result is planned as a regular GIF built from the swapped frames, so you can download it and send it like any other GIF.

A GIF moves, so the new face has to hold up across many frames rather than one. That is why the tool shows the frame count of your GIF before you start, and why a single clear face helps.
